Dr. Leif Loberg of Loberg Professional Dental Corporation of Laguna Hills sees patients regularly who are interested in rejuvenating their smiles. They want to combat stubborn stains, dullness, and yellowing that may occur on the surfaces of their teeth. Many of these men and women have already attempted to whiten their smiles using over-the-counter products available at the drugstore. These products may provide little results and leave patients wanting a more effective way of enhancing their smiles. This is when Dr. Leif Loberg may suggest the benefits of professional teeth whitening services.
At Loberg Professional Dental Corporation, we encourage patients to learn about the teeth whitening services available in our state-of-the-art practice. Dr. Leif Loberg offers two varieties of whitening – Opalescence take-home whitening kits and our in-office Zoom! power bleaching. Both can whiten the smile up to eight shades whiter quickly and easily in an affordable manner. The cost of teeth whitening will vary depending on the type of whitening patients choose and how often they decide to have it completed. While these services do cost more than over-the-counter whitening products, they hold their value because they provide noticeable results that can last much longer than any other method.
Both whitening services begin with a thorough cleaning of the teeth. This ensures the whitening works at its best and it is not hindered by plaque and tartar covering the enamel. For the Zoom! in-office power bleaching, we prepare the smile by using barrier gel on the gum tissue for protection. Then we apply the whitening gel to the teeth and use a specialized light to activate the whitening agents and allow the smile to brighten in approximately one hour before removing all gel and cleaning the teeth one last time. Our take-home whitening kits by Opalescence use custom trays that are made for the dental arch and can be used with the gels. They are worn each day to achieve a brighter smile over the course of several weeks.
